Several Of our exchanges have fallen
into the error Of stating, that the post
Office department, had promulgated an
order, that advertising matter was pro-
hibited from being printed on the en-
velopes, or wrappers, Of all mail matter.
This is not the case; the order Only APP
plies to second and third class matter
and does not apply to the envelopes Of
written matter, which is first class.
County Treasurer Hays quarterly re-
port is in the hands of the News print
ers and will appear next week. The
people seem to appreciate the work of
the Captain in making reports of the
financial condition of the county every
three months. Every taxpayer can see
the condition or the finances of his own
township and the county at large.
The above from the Woonsocket
News shows the way business is done
in Sanborn county. It would please
the people of Jerauld il our treasurer
would do likewise.

rising was general. After they had
taken their seats a call was made for
those who didn't pay their debts, and
one poor solitary individual rose, who
explained that his name was Thorndyke
and that he was a country editor and
could not, because the rest of the con-
gregation owed him on subscription.

Every one can be a boomer. Keep
your money at home. Patronize those
who patron1ze you. Spend your money
among home institutions, where you
stand good chance to get it back. Ev-
cry dollar you spend with stranger is
gone forever. Every dollar you spend
with a home man finds its way back to
your pocket. A dollar spent in some
other town goes to help build up that
town. A dollar spent here goes to help
build up our town. Figure the thing
down fine and you lose money by buy
ing away from home, even il you get
the article for one-half what 1t WotllC
cost you at home. Remember this ant
act accordingly.
